[PATCH mpam mpam/snapshot/v6.14-rc1] arm64/mpam: Fix MBWU monitor overflow handling

Bandwidth counters need to run continuously to correctly reflect the
bandwidth. When reading the previously configured MSMON_CFG_MBWU_CTL,
software must recognize that the MSMON_CFG_x_CTL_OFLOW_STATUS bit may
have been set by hardware because of the counter overflow.

The existing logic incorrectly treats this bit as an indication that the
monitor configuration has been changed and consequently zeros the MBWU
statistics by mistake.

Also fix the handling of overflow amount calculation. There's no need to
subtract mbwu_state->prev_val when calculating overflow_val.
